Theodo'rus CYNULCUS

30. CYNULCUS (ὁ Κυνουλκος), one of the speakers in the Deipnosophistae of Athenaeus (Epit. lib. i. p. 1d., iv. p. 156a., p. 159e., p. 160d., viii. p. 347d., &c., xv. p. 669b.e., ed. Casaub.). He is represented as a Cynic philosopher, a native of Megalopolis, and as laying aside his true name of Theodore for the epithet Cynulcus. Whether he was a real or imaginary personage is not known. The epithet Cynulcus, " one whom the Cynics (κύνες) followed," was borne by other teachers of the Cynic philosophy, e. g. CARNEIUS.

William Smith. A Dictionary of Greek and Roman biography and mythology. London. John Murray: printed by Spottiswoode and Co., New-Street Square and Parliament Street. In the article on Soranus, we find: "at this present time (1848)" and this date seems to reflect the dates of works cited. 1873 - probably the printing date.
